ROCKLAND The Good Tern Co-op is hosting a community Harborside Cleanup to celebrate Earth Day. The event will be held Sunday, April 25, from 10 a.m. to noon, at the Rockland Harbor Park. Participants will be meeting at 9:45 a.m., then breaking into multiple groups to clean up along the Rockland Harbor Trail.
The Rockland Harbor Trail, run by the Rockland Harbor Trail Committee, stretches from Snow Marine Park to the Breakwater. Most cleanup areas are within walking distance, but there is the option to drive, bike, or skateboard to different locations. A Rockland Harborside Cleanup Map has been created to show the locations of cleanup areas. This map will be available online on the Eventbrite registration page, Facebook, and physically at the event.
